As part of the national Being Human festival of the humanities, and to fit with the 2018 theme ‘Origins and Endings’, the University of Glasgow End of Life Studies Group, in collaboration with the Yellow Door Gallery, Dumfries, organised the first public exhibition of artist Norman Gilbert’s drawings of his wife while at the end of her life.
The series of 12 intimate portraits were drawn by Norman as he kept vigil for a week at his wife’s bedside in the hospital. Pat Gilbert, a retired art teacher, died of a stroke in 2016 having lived with Alzheimer’s for a number of years.
We believe that the issues of death and dying need to be discussed more openly in society. Art, in all its forms, can offer a unique way of approaching this universal rite of passage. We hope that the exhibition will help promote honest and open reflections on this sensitive topic.
